Title: BR - Out from the Wilderness, You Can't Ignore Anthony Orr
Post by: ssmith general on March 11, 2011, 04:35:35 AM
"Anthony Orr was a top Alabama high school defensive lineman in the 2009 recruiting class.

He was highly sought-after, with offers from Clemson, Auburn, Tennessee and others, but was a lifelong 'Bama fan and only wanted to wear crimson.

But with all the 2009 signees on campus, the numbers just didn't fit, and Orr, being an "All Crimson" kind of guy, saw the talent on the defensive line and the number of allowed players (85) already close to being met, and took one for the team."

Thanks for the post (#).

I liked this part: "He'll push this year's starters for playing time, and next season will be ready to be a force against offenses around the SEC. 
This was just what Nick Saban hoped for when he signed Orr."

Larry Burton's Articles are legit.

And he writes well. 
I was afraid to read it (from your title).  I was afraid he'd been ignored and was leaving the team.

I watched him play a few times in high school. He was a man playing with boys.

I tell you what makes the heart feel good. When a guy walks on and he is a great player, he shows his love for the team and the university. That is what Alabama needs from all players. RTR!

Roll Tide!  Nice to see a player who's dream is to play for Alabama.
